At MyDomaine HQ, we've been witness to the many pioneering efforts of women today, and it's been our mission to continue shining a spotlight on these successful disrupters in order to pave the way for generations to come. That's why we launched our Womaneer series. The women we chose to highlight have a formula of key attributes, personality traits, and yes, failures that set them apart.

By definition, a womaneer is a woman who defies societal norms with heroism and tenacity to become a pioneering voice in her field. Each month, we have shared a new womaneer’s story to uncover their vision, grit, persistence, grace, and drive to keep going despite the odds. And we held our first community nomination, too, where we uncovered the incredible pioneer Martha Hoover, who has been quietly building a restaurant empire at Patachou Inc.

We were so overwhelmed by this year's support of the initiative that we decided to bring it to life last month with our first-ever Womaneer Power Lunch supported by 7 For All Mankind and hosted by our co-founders, Hillary Kerr, and Katherine Power, in Los Angeles. The room was filled with 120 inspiring entrepreneurs, female founders, and change-makers who came to celebrate our 10 womaneer honorees and hear how celebrity stylist and guest speaker Karla Welch is using her voice to make a difference.
